Henry’s the BEST!!!

We were so lucky to get Henry as our driver to the Plitvice Lakes National Park! His van was so comfortable and he set everything up for us to enjoy an amazing day in the park. His tour guide was fabulous and we highly recommend Henry for your transportation and organizing your excursion! We also learned a lot about the history of the country and he had great and helpful information about our trip and where to go and what to see. He’s also very connected and set us up with people for transportation in other areas we were visiting. He’s the BEST!!!

Amazing experience thanks to Henry!!

Great experience! Henry was a very good driver and guide. His hospitality and expertise made the trip very enjoyable. He even stopped on the way back and got our whole group local pastries which was completely unexpected and very generous. Would highly recommend!

A perfect start to our Croatian adventure

Henry picked us up in split for our first excursion in Croatia, suggesting we leave early to avoid the crowds. His spacious, comfortable van gave us plenty of room to stretch our legs after a long international flight. The 2 1/2 hour drive past quickly as Henry answered our many questions and shared fascinating insights about his beautiful country. There was never any pressure to rush through our day. Henry was patient, flexible, and happy to stop whenever we wanted to take photos or enjoy the scenery along the way. His exceptional service didn’t end with our visit to Plitvicka Lakes. Whenever we needed transportation or recommendations for guides at our other destinations, Henry responded promptly with excellent suggestions and First Class service. His kindness, generosity and genuine desire to make our trip memorable were evident throughout our 3 weeks in Croatia. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, dependable and personable Driver, who truly cares about his guest, I recommend Henry without hesitation. He was a wonderful introduction to Croatia and played a big part in making our vacation unforgettable.

A wonderful excursion with a wonderful and kind guide

Henry was waiting for us upon arrival in a beautiful wagon that supported eight of us. We got to the national park quickly and learned so much about the area. We spent several hours hiking and enjoying the waterfalls with a local guide. It was the first excursion of our two week trip and we enjoyed every minute of it. Henry also was so helpful at providing information and other locals that could help us with airport transfers, Game of Thrones, private tours and so much more. We highly recommend!!

Private Plitvice tour. A snow covered fairy tale

Great tour. Well organised. Our driver Ante picked us up at the front door of our apartment. Mid way we did a coffee stop. Once we got to the Plitvice lakes our local guide Mirjana took over. She is one amazing local guide. On the way back we did a lunch break and a return nap. Perfect for couples and small groups.
